I'm done with this game. Used to be stable, now this crashes and locks up the PC constantly

 

Except, I did fly for an hour in the frogfoot. (not what a bought the game for)

 

Hop in the FA18 or F16 constant crashes.

 

It even crash when I was paused and adjusting the controls in the FA18 after just starting a free flight.

 

All re-installed to the fast C drive, no file response time >20 ms and 95% of the time <5ms, swap file etc. all as they should be.

 

No other game does this. Even MSFS 2020 which is more demanding in every way. CPU, GPU, RAM, disc etc.

Tested again this morning.

 

Clean Windows install

Just added AMD graphics driver

Clean DCS install

Nothing else, no other apps running

 

The free flight in the SU25 run until the plan ran out of fuel

 

Added the FA18 module and it crashed (locked up PC) within 15mins

 

Maybe it is the extra textures some how, or a bug in the FA18 module.

The Radeon Vega 64 has 8gb of RAM

 

Maybe I will try with out the graphics driver, or any controllers plugged and try to eliminate these.

 

Obviously running without controls or the graphics driver makes the game unplayable

Hi, 

 

sorry to see you are still having issues, if you can attach the fresh log, we can continue to look for clues. 

 

I know other users with a Vega 64 and not seeing any issues so I dont think it is the card. 

If the drivers are up to date and the card is not overclocked I dont see the card being the problem. 

 

Alternatively please contact technical support here

The guide below will help you provide the data needed.

Hi

 

I don't get crash logs and the normal DCS log does not show anything, because the PC locks up totally.

 

Even with the default windows display driver it still locks up.

 

Very frustrating as this does not happen in any other game.

 

Anyway I have raised a ticket with support.

 

I got this game for the FA18 / F16C so I would like to get this working.

Hi,

 

What is the situation for you ? I have the same problem I'll crash everytime. Last year I opened a ticket. The support did not helped me so far (during 4 month approximately). I reinstalled a Windows 10 pro version, I thought the problem was solved but nows it's back! 

 

Crashing because of the memory used by DCS. Look at this:

 

2021-02-27_18h42_05.png

 

Here you can see memory swaping. I'm destroying my SSD by setting a page file on it only for DCS.

 

And you ca be sure that everytime I fly it is writing on it like crazy.

 

Here is one interesting topic you can read if needed:

 

 

It's re-opened since June 2020

 

I really hope ED is gonna do something to solve this one day, the number of users experiencing theses crashes is increasing this year.

 

Sincerely yours,

 

Raph.

A couple days ago, DCS crashed twice with the crash files notice being given. I allowed it to send the crash in to ED. I don't know if that helps any.

 

I'm using a 500 GB m.2 C drive for Windblows 10 Pro, a 1 TB m.2 D drive for DCS, and a 500 GB m.2 E drive for recording nVidia videos as I fly. (I was not recording when the crashes occurred.) The E drive is on the PCIe bus, the other two are mounted on the mobo. All 3 are NVMe. I have a 2080 ti on the PCIe. my cpu is OC'd to 5.1 GHz watercooled and has been stable for years. I fly the Hornet regularly with fps in the 70's.

 

Hope this helps

The Hornet is best at killing things on the ground. Now, if we could just get a GAU-8 in the nose next to the AN/APG-65, a titanium tub around the pilot, and a couple of J-58 engines in the tail...

@FrM RaphI'd be happy to help. Please open a new thread and attach both this dxdiag log and the most recent ZIP file you can find in C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS...\Logs\.

 

Hello @Flappie,

 

Thank you for your message.

Yeah sure I can send everything. But I really think that nothing (or nobody) will fix it. I haven't done a full flight for ages (one year at least on a server or a medium mission).

I received some messages from Andrey Filin, Valery A. Khomenok, Scott Newnham, Alexander Maximov and a lot of help from @BIGNEWY on the ticket number 102143 last year. 

Now this problem persists since 2 years. With many others we've lost hope to see a way to stop it.

If I remember correctly, on ticket was opened for the dev team.

 

We always have:

 

- A crazy amount of memory used

- Memory not clreared and increasing

- The swap always blasted (I was running the Sim without it until mid 2020)

- An access violation error with the vcruntime140.dll

 

 

 

Crash cause:

Hello @Flappie,

 

Thank you for your message.

Yeah sure I can send everything. But I really think that nothing (or nobody) will fix it. I haven't done a full flight for ages (one year at least on a server or a medium mission).

I received some messages from Andrey Filin, Valery A. Khomenok, Scott Newnham, Alexander Maximov and a lot of help from @BIGNEWY on the ticket number 102143 last year. 

Now this problem persists since 2 years. With many others we've lost hope to see a way to stop it.

If I remember correctly, on ticket was opened for the dev team.

 

We always have:

 

- A crazy amount of memory used

- Memory not clreared and increasing

- The swap always blasted (I was running the Sim without it until mid 2020)

- An access violation error with the vcruntime140.dll

 

 

 

Crash cause:

Please remove all unofficial mods from C:\Users\rapha\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods

 

then run a full cleanup and repair 

 

play dcs without the unofficial mods and see if you still get the crashes

 

 

@BIGNEWY

 

Hello,

 

I already done that one year before and even if I do it now it will be the same.

 

- I removed all mods

- Reinstalled DCS 4 times

- Reinstalled Windows 2 times

- Checked all possible hardware issues on my side

 

Now some friends have the same problem.

 

What can we do now ? 

 

I can try to open a new ticket, do the same things during months.

Or I can wait for more people having this issue to hopefully have an idea of what is causing this.

 

What do you recomend ?

@Flappie Hello,

 

I just did what we said:

 

- Removed all mods

- Deleted D:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\MissionEditor

- Deleted all my missions from the editor

- Done a full clean up / repair

 

I had the time to fly on a server this evening and of course I crashed.

@JTFF - RaphIt seems your initial issue is gone. Now, I'm sure DCS will apreiciate if you could give him more than this small 10 GB pagefile, which seems to cause memory issues.

Solution: either let Windows manage your pagefile size automatically, or manually set an initial size of 32768 MB (32 GB) and the same for max size (I see you system disk has only 50 GB left, so let's not abuse it).

Hello @Flappie , 

 

Thank you for your quick answer.

 

I have 32Gb of physical RAM, I don't understand a lot of people is running DCS with 16. As I said I, usually I don't use a swap because I don't need it. I set a page file because ED told me to use one if I would have some help.

 

DCS was running without it since a long time, not everybody has 32 Gb of RAM!

 

I set 10Go to give me "a chance" to achieve the end of my flights, and to prevent the worst case scenario BSOD...

It's set on my SSD and thrust me it's not good to write on it like this. If I use 32Gb of swap on the SSD with DCS writing on it everytime that's not good!

 

If I use 32Gb on an HDD it will be laggy and unflyable when the memory will swap. => note that at the second I'm connected to a server all 32Gb will be blasted (Why?).

If you refer to this ticket 102143, I did a lot of tests with page file and even if I set 32Gb it's gonna swap and crash. With the system managed page file I reached 70Gb.

 

So I'm currently understanding that you are asking me to use 64Gb of RAM and destroy my professionnnal SSD to fly on DCS? While some friends are running with 16.

 

It's been almost two years now I can't fly properly like @PaulG and I'm being really frustrated by this issue..

I don't have access to your tickets because I don't work at ED.

 

It's a fact: DCS eats a lot of RAM and also needs a large pagefile, unless you have 64 GB of RAM. I have 32 GB of RAM, and my pagefile is automatically set to 32 GB by Windows (I don't know why, most people get 4 GB by default). By the way, I think "pagefile kills SSDs" is a myth, for I've been using both for like 10 years and I haven't lost a single byte yet.

 

I've been helping a lot of people for the last 8 months. Alas, I haven't found a fix yet for PaulG, tn_prvteye, brettt777 and a few others. DCS is not an easy game to deal with for a PC: I think we can bother agree on that. Sources of crashes vary a lot. Here are the main culprits I've been seeing: small (or absent) pagefile; overclocking of RAM or GPU; external software messing with the game files, with the drives, the CPU or the GPU; mods ; altered/damaged DCS game files and/or temp files; faulty drivers; faulty SATA cables; dust on the CPU; faulty PSU; GFX effects incompatibilities; low DRAM voltage; BIOS parameters...  It means each case is different, even though symptoms are often the same.

 

Seeing the symptoms in your log, if you don't want to give the larger pagefile a go, I cannot help you further. The idea is to check whether your PC needs more RAM or not. You can try this for like 2 days, and if you get no crash, you'll know what to buy next.

Hi @Flappie,

 

That's not an easy thing to deal with DCS crashes, I agree!

And you guys are doing a good job.

 

I don't agree with the myth of the invicible SSD's but I spended a lot of money and time in DCS and I want to fix it.

So I'll run a 32Gb page file while couple days. But as I said I'll crash later... I've already done all theses tests in the ticket wich is not accessible for you.

  

small (or absent) pagefile; overclocking of RAM or GPU; external software messing with the game files, with the drives, the CPU or the GPU; mods ; altered/damaged DCS game files and/or temp files; faulty drivers; faulty SATA cables; dust on the CPU; faulty PSU; GFX effects incompatibilities; low DRAM voltage; BIOS parameters...

 

Do you have a little list of the BIOS parameters, OC settings, voltage issues messing with DCS ? It would be helpfull if I had some of your feedbacks regarding this list you wrote.

In fact the hardware on my side is working fine but I'm pretty sur that something doesn't work with DCS on my config since an update (because nothing have changed during the 2 past years) .

 

But at the same time I recommend to ring the bell arround this issue before more users will be impacted.

I have more and more people telling me that they have the same problem wich I'm stuck with.

 

 

Sincerely yours,

 

Raph.
